Difficult to find and only on bad streets (country lanes) be met hotel or accommodation. The water fall is actually not worth mentioning. The rooms the simplest, but nevertheless good, as in this region in cuba no wide choice available. We met 4 german/austrian standards. Couple. The dinner was quite good, no choice, but what was there was tasty. For breakfast whereas rather poor selection, not even tea was available. So if you just passing through is is not much wrong, since quite cheap-but not more. … read more

A great hotel in the middle of the jungle. The road to the hotel is in a sorry state, even for Cuban standards. It is a unique nature and the use of the staff more than made up for it. We met anywhere in Cuba and livelier staff. The food was good, the room was large and clean. The bartender made the best mojito from Cuba. The hotel offered mountain tours were highly recommended. The absolute highlight was the pool under the waterfall. … read more

The hotel has a fantastic location in the middle of the rain forest with nature pool and nature 'waterfall' shower, the long driveway from the main road. is rather difficult with many potholes 'gravel road ' are unfortunately we only a night as we had eight days hiking and were almost daily in a different hotel. if someone longer I recommend the guide Luis the present in the hotel is, spoke German well and knows what us each plant has impressed. very would have liked to have stayed longer but the 1000 kilometer waited still on us. … read more
